The Bible says true believers should HATE THIS LIFE ?

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. (Luke 4:18)

And Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly, I say to you, it will be hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” (Matthew 19:23,24)

He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. (John 12:25)

Jesus said to him, “If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me. When the young man heard this he went away sorrowful; for he had great possessions. (Matthew 19:16-22)

So how much paranoia do you think is this VT shooting going to cause in schools?

I was in high school during Columbine and I remember after that we had police patrolling our school constantly. News specials about detecting kids with guns, violent behavior, whether or not we should have metal detectors at entrances. My friend even joked she had a bomb in her bag and then was arrested by the police. Then a couple months after columbine the artsy students (Weirdos) in my grade made a list of all the students and whether they were cool or not and gave the most popular people D, C and Fs. (I got a C) Rumor got out that it was a hit list and all the students who were rated C’s or less were going to get murdered. The weirdo art people had to make a public apology to the whole school. What kind of paranoia’s and fear will the media and our society go on with now after this shooting? Predictions welcome!
